It is observed that the first minimum is at a distance of 2.5mm from the centre of the screen. Find the width of the slit.Angular width of central maxima in the Fraunhoffer diffraction pattern of a slit is measured. The slit is illuminated by light of wavelength 6000Å. When the slit is illuminated by light of another wavelength, the angular width decreases by 30%. The wavelength of this light will beAt the first minimum adjacent to the central maximum of a single-slit diffraction pattern the phase difference between the Huygens wavelet from the edge of the slit and the wavelet from the mid-point of the slit is
